Our Solution

CBL-Based Curriculum Development

Wiley conducted a needs assessment with the WGU team to determine the custom course’s scope, sequence, and content strategy. For the final course, approximately 70% of the content was mapped and repurposed from existing Wiley courses, while the remaining 30% was developed made-to-order to WGU’s specifications to align with the institution’s online teaching model. All content was organized in modules comprising chapters and subchapters, each with knowledge check questions reflecting WGU’s unique approach to the subject. The course was delivered in Wiley’s Engage platform and there are currently 2,000 + students with an annual projection of 6500 students @ $60/student.
